I've installed my water cooling system and while my GTX580 sits nicely at around 29 degrees on idle, the CPU idles at around 35 degrees. I still didn't have time to check the temps on load, however I'm not sure if the CPU temp at idle is a bit too high.
I have the loop set-up like this; Reservoir (koolance rp-402x2 with one MCP35X), CPU i5-2500 not overclocked (EK Supreme HF), Rad (Phobya 480), GTX580 (EK full waterblock) , Rad (Phobya 200 Radiator) and then back to the Reservoir.
I've mounted the CPU water block the other way round rotated by 180 degrees so that the intake on the water block is on the right as it makes it better to route the tubing. Might this be the problem if there's a problem at all?
Thanks for your time.
